Toli: Actually, in this story it's just "guy who needs heart". And it's Seto, not Tristan.


Jesselda: Welcome back, everyone. (slaps an icepack on Toli's head) Since the immature authors decided to attempt to murder each other, I'll be doing the disclaimer this time. Yu-Gi-Oh. Ours. No. All right, we're done. (props Mena's leg up on footstool)
THREE: The Wicked Pegasus Attacks!

SLAM! Tea winced. "Joey! Stop it!" she yelled.

SLAM! This time it was Mokuba, banging his head against the wall. SLAM!SLAM!SLAM!SLAM!SLAM!

"Come on, guys!" Tea pleaded. "We aren't making any progress!"

Joey managed to stop running into walls for Tea's sake. But Mokuba was way too wound up to stop. SLAM!SLAM!SLAM!SLAM!SLAM!SLAM!SLAM!SLAM!SLAM!SLAM!SLAM!SLAM!SLAM!SLAM!SLAM!SLAM!SLAM!SLAM!SLAM! SLAM!SLAM!SLAM!SLAM!SLAM!SLAM!SLAM!SLAM!SLAM!SLAM!SLAM!SLAM!SLAM!SLAM!SLAM!SLAM!SLAM!SLAM!SLAM! SLAM!THUD! Mokuba had fallen on the floor, dizzy from his head beating.

"Let's lookit da bright side," Joey said, watching the three miniature Blue Eyes White Dragons circle Mokuba's dented head.

"What's that?" Tea asked skeptically, turning to him.

Joey grinned. "He jus' lost a hundred calories from all da energy he used slammin' his head agains' da wall!"

"Oh, great." Tea threw up her hands. "He's unconscious and I have to carry him, but at least he'll be slender!" She was being sarcastic.

"I'll carry 'im." Joey hoisted Mokuba up on his back. "So, where's da White Linoleum Road lead now?"

Tea looked down. "To that door," she said. She pushed it open. "Joey! Look! Stairs!" she cheered. "We'll be one floor closer to the first floor!" She sighed in partial relief at the stairs. "Come on, Joey."

Joey followed her inside the stair room without accident. The stairs led down to another door. Tea was walking rather quickly, happy that there was some relief. She stopped when a familiar green book dropped onto the step in front of her. It opened, popping out the Toonland castle again, and Pegasus stepped out of the little door on top.

"Where do you delinquents think you're going?" Pegasus demanded. "I, the Wicked...uh, Guy of 11:00, will not allow you to walk down these stairs unless you give me the special jet-black knee-length spike-heeled boots!"

"No way!" Tea said "Mai the Good and Attractive and Sought After Witch of 8:00 told me not to let you have them!"

"Is that so!" Pegasus exclaimed. "Well, then, I'm going to have to countermand that! You'll give me those Ebony Boots now!"

"No!"

"Yes!"

"No!"

"Yes!"

"No!"

"Si!"

"Nyet!"

"Oui!"

"Nein!"

"Why not?"

"Because Mai the Good and Attractive and Sought After Witch of 8:00 said not to!" Tea said. "Believe me, if she hadn't I would've let you have them. They totally aren't my type."

"All right, then!" Pegasus said. "Then you must die!" He pulled out his deck.

"Hey, no fair!" Joey complained from behind Tea. "We ain't got decks!"

"Too bad!" Pegasus said. He pulled out a card. "Now, I'll play Toon Blue Eyes! I just made that card. It used to be you had to do something special to acquire it, but that got old, so I just decided to make it a monster card, and--but anyway! Destroy the enemy, Toon Blue Eyes!"

The Toon Blue Eyes appeared. It snickered evilly and flew at Tea.

"You can't kill me!" Tea cried. "The rating for this story isn't high enough to include Character Death!"

Pegasus looked up, and the Toon Blue Eyes stopped in mid-flight. "Hmm, you're right," he said. "But it's high enough for Serious Injury! Attack, Toon Blue Eyes--but don't kill her!"

The Toon Blue Eyes resumed its flight towards Tea, sharp claws outstretched.

"Not so fast!"

A dark blue lipstick container appeared and drew a giant dark blue square on the wall beside them. The part of the wall inside the square disappeared to reveal Mai and the Midgets. "You know what to do, Yami!" Mai said.

"It always falls to me," Yami said, eyes flashing. He whipped out his own deck. "Now I play Gaia the Fierce Knight and Curse of Dragon! Then I'll use Polymerization to fuse them together to create Gaia the Dragon Champion, who has enough Attack Points to destroy that monster! Gaia, attack!"

Tea and Joey and Mokuba were forced to flatten themselves against the wall so Gaia and his dragon could get in. "There ain't enough room for da..." Joey stopped and did a quick head count, monsters included. "Oh! For da seventeen of us!"

Gaia attacked Pegasus's monster and destroyed it, then disappeared.

"Oh, no fair!" Pegasus yelled. "I was here first! Mai, you and those Midgets--"

"Vertically challenged little people," Yami snarled, his eyes shooting daggers at Pegasus. If looks could kill, the rating for this chapter would have to have been raised.

"Sorry," Pegasus said. "But you can't be interfering! You won't--"

Pegasus's watch beeped. He glanced at it. "Whoops! Time for Yu-Gi-Oh! I gotta go!" he turned to Tea. "But I'll be back for those jet-black knee-length spike-heeled boots, you can count on that!" He stepped back into Toonland, and the book closed and flew up the stairs. Everyone stared after the book in confusion.

"Wow, thanks, Yami!" Tea said.

Yami put his deck away. "That's my job," he said, not sounding very happy about it.

"Yeah, I guess the Duel Monster League is better than the Lollipop Guild," Rebecca said in resignation.

"You three had better hurry and get to the Wizard," Mai said. "The Wicked Man of 11:00 might strike again, after Yu-Gi-Oh goes off, and we might not be able to locate you in time like we just did."

"Keep following the White Linoleum Road!" Yugi and Rebecca encouraged in unison as they all disappeared and the section of wall reappeared.

"Come on, Joey," Tea said, starting down the stairs again.

SLAM!

"Joey!" Tea yelled.

"Sorry." Joey followed her down. Mokuba followed him, grumbling about which village had lost their idiot.


END CHAPTER

Mena: More fun!

Toli: More torture.

Jesselda: I can kill you both right now. (changes Toli's arm bandage)


Next time in Chapter Four...All right, Joey's getting worse, and Mokuba can't handle it.

The road led right through the street. Through traffic. City traffic.

"We'll have to make a run for it," Tea said. Mokuba clutched her hand in fear.

Joey gulped. "Through dat?" he said.

"If we don't follow the White Linoleum Road, we won't find Cafeteria City," Tea said, trying to convince them and herself. "And then we won't find the Wizard of Domino High. We have to follow it. Okay, on three, guys. One, two..."

"Wait! Wait wait wait!" Joey exclaimed.

"What?!" Tea cried, thinking he was about to say there might be a safer way to do this.

"Do we go on three, or on go?" Joey asked.

Tea and Mokuba glared at him. "On three, you idiot!" Mokuba yelled, picking up the cane the old lady had left behind and bashing him in the head with the crook. "She said nothing about go!"

"Oh." Joey rubbed his head. "Jus' makin' sure."

Tea sighed and rolled her eyes. "As I said before, on three. One...two...three!"
